When to Travel?

For the “Royal Heritage of Rajasthan and Beyond” the best time to explore the stunning landscapes and vibrant cities is from October to March. During these months, the temperatures are cool and comfortable, making it ideal for visiting the majestic forts, palaces, and markets of Rajasthan. April to June can still offer good travel conditions, but rising temperatures make it warmer, particularly in desert regions like Jodhpur and Jaipur. The monsoon season from July to September brings high humidity and occasional rainfall, which can make travel challenging, though the rains add a refreshing green charm to the countryside.
